Never mind. He contacted me briefly after I wrote this, with the following info: #################################### I just checked. The new version does not fix that problem. The code as released does not handle backgrounds other than black. Folks should run with a black background for now. #################################### So for now, I'm sorry to say this but under win32, ipython users should stick to dark backgrounds. I'll post a note here when the readline developer has a chance to work on this problem. Regards, f -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
